Varia:
Varia A: The tour can be shortened going directly from Steiners Hohberg to Schwarzsee via Chli Ättenberg (from Steiners Hohberg, no more GPS-Track). This varia is also adapted for E-Bike tours.

Remark(s):
The sections Geissalpbrügg – Sangernboden – Spitz and Schönenboden – Steiners Hohberg and Geissalp – Salzmatt are asphalted.
The mountain path from Salzmatt to the alpine pasture from Hürlisboden requires a good mountain bike control.
At the Gantrischli, a spiced cheese is produced. Most of the alpine pastures on the path are open to the public.
